Since starting this thread I have learned about Plex and it's availability on the market.
No need for a delta class as far as i'm concerned.
in short, if you read this post then you are wasting your time.




I had a thought.
And i figured i'd post up about my thought before it got lonely and died:

There is Alpha - the free steam users.
There is Omega - the subscription payers.

Eve should consider at Delta clone class.
The way a beta clone class would work is
step 1 - agree to be a Delta clone class in your account settings.
step 2 - every 20, 30, or 60 minuites you get logged out of your game automaticly.
step 3 - every time you log in, you must watch an advertisement video.

The trade:
Deltas can buy/use items that Alpha's can't, but not qutie as much as the Omegas.

Why Eve should consider this:
There are many of us that don't have either enough time or money to make the subscription price practical or affordable.
EVE could still profit from us through ad partnerships, but the paying Omega customers would be spared the pain of having
to watch FORD automotive, Charmin toilet paper, or Monostat Seven commercials every time they log in.
Essentialy, it's an alternative method of payment - pay via ad viewing.

You wouldn't lose the Alpha population from add "annoyance syndrome" because Delta has to be sign-up instead of sign-down.
(and many omegas with their omega-only weapons and ships enjoy taking pop shots at the weak Alphas that stray into low-sec zones)



holy **** you been playing too many annoying mobile apps! if i ever saw ads i would unsub...4eva

That's okay, we get loads of threads with groundbreaking business ideas from people who haven't yet learned gigantic and glaringly obvious things about the game.
No snark, either bro, thanks for your concern.
